Set in post 9/11 New York, the film will follows three apprehensive Ivy League grads approaching their 30’s who experience trepidation, anxiety and existential woes as they find themselves not quite in the place of their professional and personal lives that they expected.

The two seem to be vibing pretty well these days.

And so intent to make it he had evidently decided to take over the directing gig from Ron Howard for whom he had originally penned the script.

And the filmmaker, who just released his latest indie film “Greenberg” starring Ben Stiller, wasn’t kidding.

The picture stars Ben Stiller as an aimless 40-something New Yorker who moves to Los Angeles in order to figure out his life while house sitting for his brother. Awkward, and recovering from a breakdown, while he’s there he begins an unlikely relationship with his brother’s assistant (Greta Gerwig).

Known for his adored and wry coming of age college film, “Kicking And Screaming” and his more caustic, but perceptively funny dramedies, “Squid & The Whale” and “Margot At The Wedding,” the writer/director is also celebrated for his writing collaboration with Wes Anderson on “The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou” and the Academy Award-nominated animated picture, “Fantastic Mr.

All due respect to the dead (RIP), but did the death of Mark Ruffalo’s brother inadvertently screw Baumbach’s upcoming relationship story, “Greenberg”?

The project was one of our most anticipated films of 2009 and originally starred Ruffalo and Amy Adams based on a script that Baumbach and his wife Jennifer Jason Leigh wrote (the trades wont tell you that part because they have yet to discover it).

The skit, “Clearing The Air” stars Paul Rudd, Bill Hader and Fred Armisen and apparently whateves has “proof” that Baumbach co-wrote (cause it was top-secret, right?).

That’s fine and all, but what about Baumbauch’s next film projects?

Together? Isn’t that like nuts and gum, together at last? How do these two things go together? Well Ron Howard is signed on to direct the film, “The Emperor’s Children” and and the script is going to be adapted by the unlikely collaborator, Noah Baumbach according to Variety.

Weird, right? Maybe not, the novel is about Ivy League grads approaching their 30s with apprehension and Baumbach has essentially made a living making films about nervous, affluent, privileged, erudite East Coast eliters, so it actually might make a pretty perfect fit.
